[Verse] Sheets tangled, head heavy, day's weight on my chest Moon's a lantern in the void, lighting up the rest Frogs hum a baseline, croak in the key of dusk Train’s growl cuts the silence, iron lungs exhale rust Steel wheels whisper secrets to the tracks they meet A rhythm in the dark, steady, never skips a beat Freight snakes unseen, pulling dreams, pulling miles Through a black ocean, stars watching, crocodile smiles [Chorus] Distant roar, train’s deep score Fades to a hum, then nothing more Life rolls on, I’m still, can’t ignore Moon guides the night, my mind explores [Verse 2] Bed’s a raft, I’m adrift in this quiet lagoon The train a ghost ship, sails under a full moon Haulin’ weight I can’t see, shadows of the day Disappearing in the night, like smoke blown away Crickets tick like clocks, frogs clap to the beat The train’s a preacher, shouting sermons to the street Every rumble a reminder, life don’t stay still It moves past, like a freight, climb the hill or it will [Chorus] Distant roar, train’s deep score Fades to a hum, then nothing more Life rolls on, I’m still, can’t ignore Moon guides the night, my mind explores
